“By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name” (Hebrews 13:15). On my Facebook page, a man wrote this comment: “Thankfulness is the enemy of comparison and discontent. Give thanks in all circumstances! If you make it a habit to give thanks, you will one day find you are that content person that you admired despite the circumstances. One of the sweetest, most godly…
“The Transformed Wife gets a lot of hate from not just the secular, godless feminists, but even from Christian women as well. They say she takes things too far, and that she is not preaching the gospel. Here’s the issue though. A lot of women within the church still have this defiant feminist attitude within them. What’s interesting is when they attack someone like Lori, they’re attacking one of the few voices that talks directly, and unapologetically about how women…
“And suddenly there appeared with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying, ‘Glory to God in the highest, And on earth peace among men with whom He is pleased’ (Luke 2:13, 14). If the hosts of heaven can celebrate Christ’s birth, why can’t we? So what if the date isn’t exactly the same date that Christ was born? It’s a day set apart to celebrate and thank God for sending His Son to be the…
Written By Pastor Aaron Brummitt Men and women were not created equal in every aspect and are distinctly different emotionally and biologically. Based upon these differences, God gave each of the two sexes well-defined roles in the home and the church. The purpose of this article is to awaken God’s people to what the scripture teaches on this subject and to restore the original intent of the Creator. PART 1: BIOLOGICAL INEQUALITY Beginning with the biological wiring of men and…
Last week, I made a YouTube video called God Has NEVER Called Women to Preach. Many have responded to me and told me that I preach, which I do not, and that preaching and teaching are the same things. They are not! I love God’s Word. I knew instinctively that preaching and teaching couldn’t be the same things. As I have been reading through the book of Matthew, God made clear to me that they are different. We are told…
Written By Ken As we headed to church last Sunday, Lori told me about an article she had just read about how women are oppressed in the Churches because they are not allowed to preach or be in leadership. We reflected on how oppressed we are by the church we attend. Why would we go to a church where I don’t preach and am not an elder? Why is it that over 99 percent of those sitting in the congregation…
Written By Ken Alexander It seems we are coming across more Christians who want to put us back under the Old Testament law. In some ways we admire their zeal to obey God, and we love them as beloved brothers and sisters in Christ. We simply have a a significant fundamental disagreement as to whether the Church is a continuation of Israel, or is it a new nation, in a new wine skin, living in a new age, which God…
A friend sent me an article about Kim Kardashian wearing an extremely immodest dress to some event she and Kanye West were attending together. Kanye said to Kim, “I went through this transition where being a rapper, looking at all these girls and looking at my wife, like, ‘Oh, my girl needs to be just like the other girls showing their body off. I didn’t realize that that was affecting my soul and my spirit as someone who is married…
“Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand” (Philippians 4:5). We live in a culture of excess. Most of us buy and have too much stuff. We have too much clothing. We eat too much. We spend too much time on social media. Some drink too much and watch TV too much. Most of us aren’t known for our moderation but God tells us that we should be known for it. What is moderation? “Let…
With social media so prevalent and overwhelming, it’s hard not for young women to become discouraged and discontent with their lives. They see women making videos of their perfectly clean and decorated homes, making meals from scratch, having big and bountiful gardens, homeschooling their well behaved children, and making a ton of money from the business they run out of their homes. I want to tell you all that no one can do everything perfectly. It’s impossible. Don’t believe everything…
